Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Stock Purchase Agreement
On October 4, 2013, Nexeo Solutions Sub Holding Corp. (“Sub Holding”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Nexeo Solutions Holdings, LLC (“Holdings” and, collectively with Sub Holding and Nexeo Solutions, LLC, the “Company”), entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) with the shareholders of Chemical Specialists and Development, Inc. and Chemical Specialists and Development, Inc. (“CSD”) pursuant to which Sub Holding has agreed to acquire all issued and outstanding interests in CSD for an aggregate purchase price of $100 million, subject to a net working capital adjustment. At the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Closing”), a portion of the purchase price will be placed into escrow and will be released as prescribed by the Stock Purchase Agreement.
Closing is subject to certain closing conditions, including, but not limited to, the expiration or termination of any required waiting periods under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 and the acquisition of certain related businesses for approximately $10.0 million. Sub Holding anticipates that the acquisitions will close prior to December 31, 2013 and will be financed primarily with cash on hand and borrowings under the Company’s asset-based revolving credit facility. There can be no assurance that all of the conditions to closing the acquisition will be satisfied.
